Two for One

Not long ago, I got an e-mail from a reader who knew I had used babysitters from Nashville's prestigious and incredibly expensive Vanderbilt University. She remembered her own Vandy sitters with great fondness.

They were lovely women with expensive cars, haircuts and purses, she wrote.

I had to laugh because that was my experience as well. When a Vanderbilt girl shows up to watch your children, you have to wonder... well... why on earth she's there. I mean, from the looks of things, they all had far more money than I did.

Thinking about all this, I remembered that I had been dying to write about my Vanderbilt Babysitting Experience all year long, but couldn't. Now though? The Vanderbilt girls are home for summer break! And so I spill the beans in this week's newspaper edition of Suburban Turmoil.

And today is a two-fer! Remember my Favorite Things post from last week? I did a beauty product edition for this week's Beauty Uncensored column in Her Nashville Magazine. Be sure and check it out- It contains all my very favorite (and inexpensive) ways to look fab.
